Resumen
TORRES PENAGOS, María Fernanda. Multidimensional Poverty Index for Teusaquillo (Bogotá): A methodological proposal based on citizen perception. Cuad. Econ. [online]. 2018, vol.37, n.74, pp.555-588. ISSN 0121-4772. https://doi.org/10.15446/cuad.econ.v37n74.56164.
One of the objectives of measuring poverty includes following a population’s poverty over time, which serves as a tool to develop social development policy. The official measurement in Colombia, the Multidimensional Poverty Index, limits itself to identifying only local realities of poverty. Teusaquillo’s socioeconomic situation is not accurately reflected by the official indicators. The objective of this paper is to propose a new poverty measurement using mixed methods that identifies and characterizes the experiences of Teusaquillo’s inhabitants and any failures that are society experiences. Improvements can only be made after this process has been successfully carried out.
